Instructions
- Wash the scallops and pat them with a paper towel to dry them. Season with a pinch of salt.
- In a skillet, combine the olive oil and the canola oil, and heat until extremely hot.
- Lower the scallops individually and away from you, making sure not to crowd the pan
- Add some butter and baste the scallops as they cook. Cook until almost cooked through, about 2 minutes. They should have a golden brown color to them.
- Carefully turn the scallops over and continue to baste the scallops. When they are cooked they should be totally opaque and firm.
- Remove the scallops from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain off any excess grease.
